Allagash Midnight Brett Bottles Coming on Black Friday

Allagash Brewing Company is set to debut another bottled wild ale this holiday season on Black Friday, November 29. While Chicago will be losing their minds over the Goose Island Bourbon County series, Portlanders can pick up the first bottles of Midnight Brett at the brewery, with distribution following shortly after.

Midnight Brett originally debuted in May 2013 as a draft-only release, and will now join other limited edition Allagash beers such as FV13, Merveilleux, Old HLT and others.

Midnight Brett is chocolate brown in color, brewed with 2-Row, Midnight wheat, raw wheat and rye malt. It was hopped with a blend of Perle, Glacier and Simcoe hops. The beer was fermented with our house strain of Brettanomyces in stainless tanks. The finished beer has the aroma and flavor of fresh berries, sour cherries and a slight roasted character. The finish is pleasantly tart and fruity making this beer very drinkable. 7.3% ABV.
